S+P 500 trades at exactly 5000
Yesterday the S+P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 rose to set fresh record highs and in the case of the S+P it was something of a red letter day. The index finally printed a trade at 5,000. The high was set right on that level, at 5,000.40 to be exact. The index later posted a daily close at 4,997.91, which was also it highest ever daily close. Overnight the S+P futures are not far removed from that closing level as Asian markets are mostly higher, in what has been subdued trading due to the start of the Chinese lunar New Year holidays. The S+P 500 futures are currently pricing the reopening at 4,996.
